Lakhi Jungle, also known as Lakhi Jangali, was a historical jungle located in present-day Punjab, India. It should not be confused with the historical Machhiwara jungle. The region was referred to as the Lakhi-Jangal tract. A number of toponyms of parganas were recorded in Mughal documents bearing the Lakhi suffix.
